A newer Metropole Cinema would later open nearby on Easter Saturday 1972 as the “New Metropole Cinema” with Sean Connery in “The Anderson Tapes”, and two more screens were added on December 19, 1980 bringing a total to three screens. In December 1984, that theater was renamed “Screen At College Street”, and was renamed the “D'Olier Street Screen” in 1993.
The other Metropole continued to operate until closing for the final time on March 13, 1998 with “Good Will Hunting” in Screen 1, “Boogie Nights” in Screen 2, and “The Ice Storm” in Screen 3.
In 1927, the original architect added a canopy over the restaurant entrance on Prince’s Street.
